It began in 1984.Î¾ The purpose was to use the media to get crime prevention information to people in high crime neighborhoods.Î¾ In 19-91 it was expanded to all areas of the city. Acting HPD Chief C-A McClelland says this year March on Crime will highlight crimes that are difficult to solve but are preventable.

"Burglaries of motor vehicles and thefts."

McClelland says it pays to be proactive with this type of crime.
